This page contains a set of guides to show readers how to do common or useful tasks on the system. These guides focus on system-related items such as how to install a linux option or configure an on-board device. Items listed here should achieve a goal as simply as possible, with the aim to build the confidence of the reader. For anything more complex, the item should be listed on the projects page.

The Raspberry Pi Forum has a list of [http://www.raspberrypi.org/forum/projects-and-collaboration-general/the-projects-list-look-here-for-some-ideas Project Ideas & Links], to help people get started.

|The LXTerminal application starts with a default size of 24 rows and 80 columns. The window can be resized, but this setting is not remembered for the next time you create a window. This guide shows how to make the setting persistent.

The Raspberry Pi can be set up to handle real-time, low-latency audio but it requires quite some tweaking. Hence this Wiki article in which some common bottlenecks as well as some possible optimizations will be described. Last but not least this article will explain how to get JACK aka jackd running on your RPi.
